Since my identically named thread that was posted fifteen minutes before this one has been ignored, I’ll add my comments here. Everything they make is ugly. Why do they always use brass? I don’t get it.
If they WERE going to use brass, why make a double action that otherwise looks like something made post turn of the 20th Century when brass framed revolvers were more than fifty years out of date? Why not make a single action? There were a few cartridge conversion single actions that probably had brass frames at some point or another. That's what I was wondering. Why not a single action?

![[Linked Image from henryusa.com]](https://www.henryusa.com/wp-content/uploads/2023/04/H017-GDM-BDM_Revolver_Hero.jpg) Looks like an old Colt, High Standard and H&R had a "three way". $928.... Do you have to pull the pin and take the cylinder out to load it?  No.

It looks like a revolver that was clearly maximized in design for ease of manufacture, and when they got it all done said...Hey wait, we need to do something aesthetic...let's add a brass grip frame/trigger guard.

They should chamber the sq bt in 45 Colt. Add a lanyard ring. And call it the Bubba.

They're an interesting company. God bless 'em, it's like they have the right idea, but they don't really have any gun people working there. Everything they make looks like it was well-produced, just a little off. And the brass, get rid of the brass. It's not like the largest proportion of their market goes around with gold chains around their necks. The style of their guns just seems to scream, "Designed in NYC by an Italian American guy who's never been south of Newark, west of Binghamton or north of White Plains. Their guns look like they belong in 1950's comic books.

They make some interesting choices...but they sell a lot of guns, so someone is buying them.

Imperato donates to a lot of good causes but that boy needs to be chained up in the Texas Rangers museum until he learns what a revolver and lever action are supposed to look like.

Did the Guinea from Henry put this out as an April fools joke? $1k? Really? I can hear that meathead Sean Hannity going on about how great Henry is and how much he loves practicing at the “target range” with his new Henry revolver.

Look at the colt 1877 grip and compare it to Henry pistol they are damn near identical. Must be for the cowboy action crowd.
Then STFU. The rest of your statement is superflous bullshit with no real bearing on this discussion other than to massage your own ego. Suckin' on my titties like you wanted me.

That would have been a more natural extension of their line of lever action rifles.

Based on their rifle quality these are gonna be a hard pass as well. I like the company. I like what he does. Lord knows he try’s but it’s just another swing and a miss from them.

Somebody had to make the “Chiappa Rhino” look good... LMAO! 😂😂😂 The Chiappa Rhino looks like a “Masterpiece” compared to Henry’s latest ABORTION. 🤪 Ruger should do a .38 version of their El Cheapo Wrangler revolver and retail it for $249.00. to compete with Henry’s latest embarrassment. 😜
